Chapter 524: Chapter 349: Lu Xuan’s Full Divinity! The Immortal’s Indifference! (Part 2)

This seemingly young cultivator, what a formidable existence he truly is.

Just a single glance renders us speechless, immobilized like cicadas in winter.

No matter how many ants there are, they remain mere ants.

Lu Xuan lightly tapped his toes on the void, slowly floating down before the crowd.

Though he had withdrawn all his surrounding pressure, he still exuded an undeniable authority.

"Do as I command, and you all may keep your lives!"

Lu Xuan’s cold words echoed across the plaza before the hall, as irrevocable as a divine decree.

Everyone was momentarily stunned, staring at each other, unsure of the intentions of this terrifying presence.

In the midst of this deathly silence, a few officials clad in crimson robes suddenly stepped forward from the crowd.

Their jade pendants at their waists emanated unusual spiritual light, their steps were steady and strong, evidently not average civil officials.

"Senior, perhaps there’s some misunderstanding here?"

The leader clasped his hands respectfully, his tone courteous but not servile.

Lu Xuan’s gaze flickered slightly, instantly discerning that these individuals had reached the Qi Refining Perfection stage, their bodies’ spiritual power carrying a familiar fiery aura.

The very hallmark of the Flame Valley cultivation technique.

According to the norms of the cultivation world, major sects would dispatch disciples to station at secular dynasties.

These Flame Valley inner sect disciples became ministers, in name to assist, but in reality to oversee, ensuring the dynasty remained under sect control.

Seeing Lu Xuan still standing with hands behind his back, indifferent to their goodwill.

Another silent crimson-robed official couldn’t hold back anymore.

He stepped forward slowly, the Flame Valley Token at his waist gleaming with piercing red light under the sun.

"Senior," his voice deliberately lowered, yet bearing an undisguised arrogance.

"Allow me to clarify once more — we are all inner sect disciples of the Flame Valley."

As he spoke, he subtly activated the token at his waist, instantly radiating a scarlet halo.

"This Holy Fire Dynasty is a secular nation nurtured by us Flame Valley."

His words gradually turned threatening, stressing each syllable heavily.

"Senior, if you insist on causing trouble here, I’m afraid..."

He deliberately elongated his tone, exchanging a meaningful glance with his fellows beside him.

They simultaneously formed incantations, a faint red spiritual power surging around them, sketching out the unique fiery aura of Flame Valley in the air.

"You know the temper of our Valley Master is... known by all!"

Another disciple added ominously, "If they find out, Senior, that you’re causing trouble here in the Holy Fire Dynasty... the consequences would be dire."

The words of these Flame Valley inner sect disciples were finished, their threatening intent was unmistakable!

Even across the Sun-Swallowing Dynasty, the reputation of Flame Valley is renowned, known throughout the world!

So, as inner sect disciples of Flame Valley.

Even when faced with the unfathomable Lu Xuan, they habitually assumed a condescending stance.

The plaza’s atmosphere instantly froze.

The royal members who were trembling moments ago now rekindled a glimmer of hope in their eyes.

Indeed, this is the domain of Flame Valley, who dares to create havoc here?

Just as the Flame Valley disciple finished speaking, sudden blue light erupted in Lu Xuan’s eyes.

"Noisy."

A cold snort thundered like Nine Heavens thunder!

In an instant, spiritual power erupted madly, centering on Lu Xuan, a tangible blue spiritual power wave expanding rapidly.

The Flame Valley disciples had no chance to react.

Their protective spiritual light shattered instantly, blood spewing from their mouths.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

With successive muffled sounds, several figures flew out like ragged cloth.

They smashed jade railings, penetrated three palace walls, everywhere they passed, bricks scattered, dust billowed.

Finally, they became black dots, disappearing into the distant sky, life or death unknown.

The plaza was deathly silent.

All were dumbfounded, staring at this scene.

Those Immortal Masters, once standing high above, couldn’t even withstand a cold snort from this presence!

Lu Xuan slowly withdrew his gaze, his tone indifferent as before: "Last chance for you..."

His voice was light, yet sent chills through the thousands present.

The restless royal guards now lowered their heads, weapons clattering to the ground.

Several princes directly knelt, trembling all over.

At this moment, everyone understood!

Before him, what was royal power, what were disciples of the Immortal Sect, all were but jokes.

As all the people bowed down to the ground, a young man dressed in a bright yellow python robe suddenly crawled out from the crowd on his knees.

His forehead knocked heavily on the golden bricks, making a dull thud.

"This humble one greets the Immortal Master!"

The man’s voice trembled slightly with excitement, "I am the Crown Prince of the Sacred Fire Dynasty!"

"I am willing to lead the entirety of the Sacred Fire Dynasty to follow only the Immortal Master’s lead!"

His body prostrated on the ground trembled appropriately, showing both fear and dignity.

But no one saw, on the face pressed against the ground, a nearly twisted ecstasy was emerging.

How many years had it been, his father, who favored his younger brother, those brothers who watched like tigers waiting to pounce.

At this moment, they all turned into fleeting clouds!

The throne!

He had never thought that the position of the supreme ruler would be so close to him.

The Crown Prince’s prostrate body trembled slightly, not from fear, but from ecstasy suppressed to the extreme.

His glance swept over the skeletal remains on the dragon throne — who could have imagined.

That father, who had been assassinated in his dreams countless times, would exit in such a manner?

In the Sacred Fire Dynasty, the position of Crown Prince was like a sword hanging overhead.

Not to mention the fates of his several Crown Prince brothers.

The eldest brother, deposed ten years ago, screamed in the imperial prison for three whole days.

The second brother, who "suddenly died" five years ago, showed a look of death with open eyes until his last moment.

And his fifth brother, who was beaten to death, simply for saying, "I want to emulate father in the future!"

Thinking of this, the Crown Prince’s fingernails dug deeply into his palm, and blood flowed along the patterns of the gold-bricked floor.

Unable to suppress his inner desires, he slowly raised his head to peer into the depths of the palace.

The two comatose concubines beside the dragon throne, their disheveled robes, made the Crown Prince’s breathing increasingly heavy.

That Consort Yun, who always loved wearing crimson gauze skirts, intentionally passed by him last month while attending to him, and the red marks on her fragrant shoulders still scorched his eyes.

Through his disheveled hair, he happened to glimpse the snow-white neck of the other concubine.

Just like depicted in the erotic painting hidden in his bedroom’s secret compartment, even the position of the vermillion mole was identical.

The desire to claim them both was like countless ants crawling through his marrow.

After today, I will be the ruler of this Sacred Fire Dynasty.

Including those two unparalleled beauties lying on the dragon throne, who I have pined for day and night, they will all be mine!

Lu Xuan paid no heed to these mortal thoughts.

"Hand over the Jade Seal."

The Crown Prince was still immersed in ecstasy, not yet reacting, when another colder voice arrived.

"Within six hours, all the royal family relations must be gathered here."

Those kneeling shuddered violently, and several aged princes almost collapsed to the ground.

They exchanged glances of bewilderment and uncertainty.

What did this Immortal Master, who could overturn a dynasty with a mere lift of his hand, need with an item as useless as the Jade Seal?

Why gather the entire royal family?

Regarding Lu Xuan’s demands, they were utterly perplexed.

Yet, the Crown Prince nearly bounced off the ground, straightening his back, exuding the demeanor of the Regent Crown Prince.

His eyes were blood-red, and his voice, sharp with excitement, changed in tone: "Attend me! Transmit the Crown Prince’s decree—"

"Seal the Nine Gates immediately!"

"Anyone attempting to break in will have their entire clans eradicated!"

"And you there, summon thirty thousand Red Fire Guards for the Crown Prince!"

"Bring those hiding in other courtyards, feigning illness, practicing Buddhism — all members of the royal family, drag them here!"

"If even one person is missing, this Crown Prince will flay your entire family alive!"

Then, the Crown Prince turned to another side, and kicked over the trembling old eunuch.

"You worthless slave!"

"Didn’t you hear the Immortal Master’s words, still not rushing to fetch the Jade Seal for the Crown Prince?"

.....

For a moment, when that exquisitely crafted Jade Seal was finally presented before him.

The Crown Prince, who was imposing just now, felt his knees weaken and crawled all the way to Lu Xuan like a dog finally presented with a bone.
